Paying Tax Debt in a Lump Sum
It's best to quickly pay your tax debt in full to:
- avoid additional interest
- ensure no collection measures are taken against you
Payment methods
You can pay your debt in full in any of the following ways:
- electronically,
- using the online payment service of a financial institution (and your payment code shown on the first page of a collection notice, final notice or demand for payment)
- at a financial institution or an ATM (check with your financial institution to see if it offers these payment methods)
- by mail
Receipt of payment
Regardless of how you pay, your payment is considered to have been received on the date it is received at one of our offices or the date it is processed by a financial institution for remittance to the Minister of Revenue of Québec. To avoid interest and penalties, make sure you account for processing by your financial institution.
